The Bull is a pictorial consummation of beautiful memories of the school year W7n- 76 To some, it represents the totalness of a year spent at Johnson C. Smith I ' nirersity. To others, it represents certain memorable situations never to be forgotten Still to others, it repre. ' ents f)eriods of strife and achierements. Above all. it is the final product repre. ' enlina all Smith- ites. indicating a ear well spent at Dear Ole Smith Johnson C Smith I ' niversity is more than just an m. titutum. While i;iv- ing us intellectual stimulation, she has helped us to become bettir people. Johnson C. Smith has helped us to prepan- for one of the most important days of our lives - tomorrow. She has helped us to discover that ire ihoose our next world through what we learn in this one. We decide for ourselves what roads we will travel and nhal our destination will he. Our astrological sifins merely direct our daily patterns They don ' t determine our destiny. We can change the world only by changing ourselves.

Dr. Jack Brayboy Vice President Of Administrative Affairs Lives of great men all remind us we can make our lives sublime, and, departing, leave behind us. Footprints in the sands of time . . . —Longfellow DEDICATION There have been in all ages, in all civilizations, and in all cultures men who, in life, walk taller than those who walk beside them. In the microcosm of Johnson C. Smith University there is such a man. A man who continues to grow in wisdom and stature to us, who has carried our problems on his shoulders, and who has given us a gift we can never equal, faith in ourselves. He has been patient and understanding when we cry of dissatisfaction. He knows how to talk with us with knowledge of our wants and needs because he knows us, the students! We dedicate the 1975-76 edition of The Bull to you. Dr. Jack Brayboy, with admiration and love. The Bull Staff Twmf i Z Life is a series of games — games of finding answers, finding amusement, persuad- ing people, winning friends, raising families and perform- ing rituals. Some persons relish the game of life and enjoy all the sub-games to the hilt. Others play them grimly, with their eyes fixed on the score- board, too much concerned with staying ahead to enjoy the game. -al Sometimes we feel that school simply doesn ' t have much meaning for us if we don ' t belong to something or to someone. We go to classes to search for deeper meanings, to see if we can under- stand more fully our reasons for coming to college. Surely there must be more to college than textbooks. k So we join a group — in which we can express ourselves. An organization in which we can find fulfillment while doing the things we like. And even though we join countless organizations we do not want to change that which makes us different And we don ' t have to change. We can still be individuals if we wish. Now! To get this shot!

For others the thrill of the crowd and a roar for the mighty BULLS. For us, the Senior Class, its thoughts of this time next year when we will have gone our separate paths. We think of the thrills of half- time and the moment of kickoff. But for nearly everyone it is a time to be merry, a time to forget the pressures of academics and have a fun-filled weekend because Monday morning at eight, the Grind starts again. u I iiiiiiir ' KMMlllllliiy HIM ■niiiiiiiii I pillllllH Ullllllll Deltas Advertise Morot Bikes- r .- si y i f MTiore Class id ftendants J - igbipge Hall Queensi and AttendaVits L Sgc nd Attendant J Mary Baker HOMECOMING ended.

Statement of Purpose Save and Change Black Schools Committee The Save and Change Black Schools Committee is a nationally affiliated organization which has become ofTicially established on the campus of Johnson C. Smith University. The funda- mental objectives of the SCBSC and the signiflcance of each are expressed below: 1. The Committee emphasizes the importance of education as one tool for expansion of the col- lective Black consciousness. It urges students to attend classes, to be attentive, to offer solid input to extract knowledge useful in preparation for the future. 2. The Committee stresses the need for Black college graduates to return to their communities and to utilize their relative skills for the direct benefit of the Black masses. It urges college undergraduates to encourage and educate their fellow brothers and sisters to the importance of higher learning in this society. .3. The Committee realizes the need for an increased level of respect in student student as well as in student faculty relationships. 4. The Committee advocates unity, and the need for Black people to help one another whenever possible.

CLASSES class Editor — Sandra Williams Thousands of men breath, move and live; pass off the stage of life and are heard no more. Why? They did not a particle of good in the world; none were blest by them, none could point tothem as the instrument of their redemption; their light went out in darkness, and they were not remembered more than the insects of yesterday. Will you thus live and die, O man immortal? Live for something. — Chambers F R E S H M E N FRESHMEN CLASS OFFICERS John Lubin — President DeMarkus Calhoun — Vice President Slick Johnson — Treasurer Steven Boyd .

Between rejoicing and lauding the glamour and glory of this moment of fulfillment, the Senior Class of 1976 pauses to reflect on the joys and sorrows, the work and play which we experienced during the four formative years which we spent here at our Alma Mater. During these four years many of us accepted the challenges and opprotunities for laying firm foundations on which satisfying and successful careers can be built. These challenges brought about many changes in us: A larger degree of maturation, a wider scope of concern, a deeper sense of responsibility and greater efficiency in a specific skill to take to the market place, are among the gains achieved while here in this academic community. We are sincerely grateful to the college family for what is has meant to us and we are equally grateful to our parental families and loved ones for their love, concern, support and encouragement during our four years of striving for this goal. They have understood our challenges and changes for which we will forever be grateful. May Johnson C. Smith University continue to build firm foundations for worthy participation in the larger society and may we not forget its contributions to us and to respond to its needs. £.fL£.ctLon± and c ' i s.moix6.

SMITH UNIVERSITY Charlotte, north Carolina 28216 OFFICr OF THE PRESIDENT TO: The Class of 1976 GREETINGS : This year, 1976, finds Americans all across the nation, celebrating the 200th birthday of the United States. For certain of her citizens, the Bi-Centennial celebration mirrors to some degree the hyprocricy that signi- fied the American Revolution and the Declaration of Independence. A small segment of the Black citizenry are asking the question, why celebrate 200 years of unjustice, 200 years of man ' s inhumanity to man? The question can be answered very simply. We must celebrate the fact that from 1619, long before the signing of the Declaration of Independence, Blacks were a part of the nation ' s development. In servitude and later on their own, they tilled the soil and harvested the crops; they built the roads and railroads; they served in the nation ' s armies at home and abroad. Thus Black Americans, aware of our contribution to the birth, growth and development of this country, predating the arrival of the Mayflower to the present, join in the celebration of the Bt-Centennial because, with all of its imperfections, it is OUR LAND. And so, in this year, 1976, two hundred years later, as you go out into the world of active adult participation in this society, I hope that you will do your part to make the American Dream a reality. America - the land that never has been yet And yet must be... The land where every man is free... Sincerely yours. Dr. Wilbert Greenfield President of Johnson C. Smith University Dr. Limone C.

I wish to thank each member of my staff for the time spent in the production of this annual. I wish to extend special thanks to my right hand assistant, Ann Gupton and to my staff photographers. They were always on the job. Appreciation is extend- ed to Mr. Townes for his assistance in photography and a world of thanks to Mr. Willie Bul- lock of Delmar Studios who stood by me all the way.

FOOTPRINTS IN THE SANDS OF TIME We sit and wonder trying to visualize what life will bring after a solemn decision; often- times we wonder if life will have a provision. At this early date it is hard to see what the future holds. Whether we go to the world of work, or continue in the field of learning, the place in society we ' re looking for will keep our fires burning. With every endeavor, there is hardship — hardship we will surely find, but we have lives before us and we will leave foot- prints in the sands of time.
